afconvert ExtAudioWrite error has me stumped

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction for fixing a problem that has me completely baffled.

On a Leopard Server with 10.5.7, I'm getting the following error from running the afconvert tool in Terminal to convert an aif to an mp4: Error: ExtAudioFileWrite failed ('!buf').

If I run afconvert on my MBP (also 10.5.7 in the Terminal) going over the network to the same file on the server, the conversion works perfectly - so the files are OK.

When I'm on the server, I can write into the folder with the audio files - so the permissions seem set properly.

I can't find any explanation for the '!buf' error message, so I'm not sure what afconvert is hiccuping over.

I really know almost nothing about the whole ACL permission scheme on the server, but is this something that could cause the error message? Any other directions I should be looking in?

Rob
